Hi Laura and others,
it's not entirely clear to me why this message pops up on this particular PyPy-list, but read on...
It's a long story. In short, several of us rebels were talking about setting up a website with Python content (using Tim's website design and logo, which we happen to like a lot). That lead to discussions about maintaining content in reST using cvs or svn. Stephen Deibel and Tim Parkin have code for doing such a thing that they want to open source. So we decided to start a project. Laura thought the PyPy folks also had similar needs, and similar code. Hence the post here. We'd love to have you involved as well. We've got a SourceForge project set up, but since SF doesn't support Subversion, we may take up Holger's offer to host it, when he has time to do so. Here is a very brief project description: "Restify is a lightweight content management system that uses reStructuredText documents to generate static (or dynamic) web pages for an entire website. It is written in Python, and does not require any software on the server (except for dynamic content). Source documents are stored in Subversion." At least, that's all *I* need to be a happy camper.[1] Others have cool ideas they would like to have. I imagine that if this project satisfies Laura, it should satisfy just about anyone. <big wink> [1] With a name of Restify, I would suggest that the developers call themselves Restifarians.[2] :-) [2] http://www.google.com/search?q=rastafarian -- Patrick K.
